Tough Age – ‘Snakes & Ladders’

tough-age-3-credit-noah-adams

Vancouver-raised garage-rock quartet, Tough Age will follow-up to their 2013 self-titled LP, with the release their new album I Get The Feeling Central.

Out on June 23rd through Mint Records, the first taster comes in the shape of lead single ‘Snakes & Ladders’, and it’s a hell of a tune. Built on the bedrock of scuzz pop, the new single is simultaneously sweet and ear-splittingly loud. A blisteringly supercharged onslaught of scorching red-hot riffs, catchy hooks, clattered drums and echoed vocals; ‘Snakes & Ladders’ is a thunderous and propulsive mix garage stomp and glam fuzz. This is one of the finest three-minute blasts of fuzzed-up garage rock you’re likely to hear. Not only that, it’s also insanely catchy and extremely infectious, and an absolute beast of a tune!

With their second record almost upon us, Tough Age have a string of live dates across North America including Vancouver w/ Energy Slime @ The Astoria on May 2nd – see the full list here.
